What is I-O?

Industrial-organizational (I-O) psychology is the scientific study of the workplace. Rigor and methods of psychology are applied to issues of critical relevance to business, including talent management, coaching, assessment, selection, training, organizational development, performance, and work-life balance.

Update on the I-O Track for APS

Submissions

Submitted posters and symposia have now been reviewed and decisions on the program have been finalized. There were 86 posters submitted, and 3 symposia to the I/O track. 83 posters were accepted, and 6 were rejected (some were moved from different tracks that weren't counted in the original 86.) 1 symposium was accepted, 1 was rejected, and 1 was reassigned as a poster.

There are a number of invited talks as well.
